Look at the data. The data shows that Java has the highest growth and is relatively stable throughout the past 5 years. But C++ looks like it has the highest salary, but Java comes in a close second.

Answer 3

If you have knowledge of Java then for stability you can go for that.



But you are having experience in Php then it will better to opt for that but I cannot guarantee that you will have a stable career



Do not even think of going in C/C++. Waste of time.
